Plus also has coloured undertray, ECU, side winder air filter, Vancehind can, wavy disk and new pads,standard Red colour, it has new plugs/oil & filter/clutch cable and battery late last year.
Is this a good price and what should I look for when I see it?
Help appreciated & quick if it's good deal :D

Hi Birdy
I live in Worthing too, and have a 2001 X1 (but it's not for sale).
I don't know as much about Buells as most of these guys here on UKBEG, but if you want an independent pair of eyes with you when you go see the bike, I'm happy to help :)

Check the front engine mount. If you spot new bolts or evidence it's been buggered about with, ask why? Otherwise, it sounds a good price if it's half tidy.

May be the one I saw a while ago. If its being sold by a guy in a bungalow and its heavily chained to the floor of his garage then it could be the same one ,he seems genuine and was desperate for cash . Never rode it just heard it (loud), bought an S1 instead .

£2.5k sounded good and it was sold to someone else for that...it failed to make the £2.5 reserve and finished up at £2250 maximum bid.
Another white one atm there http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... K:MEWAX:IT

Looking on 'completed listings' on ebay there are loads unsold as either too expensive classifieds or auction with too high a reserve so either they're too high or guys just refusing to sell any cheaper. No doubt sellers think they're worth more but they're only worth what the market can take.
I can wait......
